Question

Solve each equation in Exercises 15–34 by the square root property.(x - 3)^2 = - 5

Accepted Answer

by applying the square root property called age plus seven squared equals negative 69. So age plus seven squared equals negative 1 69. Now square root property just tells us we can apply the square root to both sides of this equal sign. Let's take the square here. Take it on this side and the other side on the left side we will get h. Now the right side we have a score of -169. We have to remember that we take a square root of a negative number. We're gonna get an imaginary number. We know the squaring of 169 is 13. But we have a negative number which means we have to take into account the eye. Since we have a negative we'll call this 13. I now if you have page plus seven equals 13. I however when I remember one other thing and that when we take a square root we will get a plus or minus. So on our 13 I I'm gonna add a plus or minus. Then we have a plus seven equals plus or minus 13. I Now they find a child to subtract seven from both sides. eight equals plus or -13. I -7 Which we split that up. We have H equals 13 I minus seven and H equals negative 13 I minus seven. We can simplify any farther. So these are the answers to our problem. That means the answer to our problem is the answer A. Okay I hope to help you solve the problem. Thank you for watching. Goodbye
